Trump is a narcissistic, egotistical braggart. That said, I wouldn’t doubt if he cozied up to Epstein because it made him feel ‘part of the crowd.’ He needs attention in the worst way. I’m not sold he REALLY knew everything that was going on at the time. As I’ve said, I look less at personalities and more to policies. He’s attempting to shrink government. Or—at least—redirect many functions back to the States where they belong if you believe in our Constitution. For that, I’m okay with many of his policies, even though they may not personally benefit me and mine. Musk would be better off either supporting independent challengers to vulnerable seats, or supporting the Libertarian Party—which happens to be very closely aligned to the Freedom Caucus as far as government’s role. Ron Paul was basically the forefather of the Tea Party/Freedom Caucus movement, and the Libertarian Party is already sanctioned in all 50 states. Between his obvious views on Mary Jane, limited government, and his desire for personal liberty, he fits in the Libertarian Party better anyway.

The wise part of the ruling maintains the separation of powers. SCOTUS rules on constitutional matters. Lower courts rule on criminality via powers granted. As I edited before your post, this ruling will also be what protects Obama from current accusations. Yes. Broad leeway was given.

I knew all that when I posted. It’s the absolute lunacy of the ruling that concerns me. Will the Supreme Court get to decide “official” presidential duties? It’s all ludicrous.

Needless fears. There are checks and balances aplenty. In the end, there’s the 2nd Amendment. For better or worse, this alone sets America apart from other nations.

SCOTUS specifically ruled POTUS isn’t above the law. Read the actual ruling. SCOTUS specifically ruled POTUS can’t be ‘second guessed’ for official acts performed under his/her duties granted by the Constitution. The decision was sent back to lower courts for further development. Trump was re-elected. Case was closed before further development of what was official and what wasn’t. SCOTUS NEVER gave carte Blanche for any POTUS to perform illegal/criminal acts. But, they set the bar very high as to not infringe on Presidential powers. This ruling will also be what protects Obama from current accusations. Not so for others.

I have a hard time listening to people who want to play hardball, then cry when they get hit by a pitch. As I said, no more or less treasonous than Trump’s play for ballots and destabilization of election security. Lie in that batter’s box and cry for a while, baddog.

We are fast tracking to an oligarchy, Bubba. The “welfare state” is small potatoes to the oligarchs. Small price to pay to keep workers fed and housed and the unemployed/unemployable alive so we don’t look too inhumane.

Gimme a couple of those levels, if you don’t mind.

I believe in your opinion. When you hear others claim that this is all a witch hunt fabricated by the fake news and any body else other than his administration. Trumps administration says he is limited by the courts on what he can release but he has not followed the rule of law when it comes to the courts. He has disregarded the courts quite a few times and now after Bondi inserts foot in mouth Trump now has regards for the rule of law. Those that were involved are guilty of a crime. Hush money is popular on both sides of the isle as it pertains to this matter. I wouldn’t vote for Musk but he maybe on to something creating a new party.

Not too bright without the teleprompter is he? LOL He managed to basically say hetero men have no feelings, and gay men are sissies all in the same response. Of course, since his father went absentee when he was 2, and he was raised by his mother & “the village”, what would one expect. It would have been hard for him to comprehend the duties of a husband and father from a first-hand experience. Would make me feel kinda sorry for him…if I had any empathy.

11-3 Ort win with Hunter not pitching well. We needed that salvage. back to 4 up. Great hitting last half of game.

According to Epstein's attorney, Patel was wrong. There's no list. No black book of John's. There were multiple accusers who provided testimony that jurors believed to convict Epstein and Maxwell. Many of those accusers have settled out of court with the Epstein estate to the tune of millions of dollars. Part of the settlement agreement may very well have been their silence. That would also mean their silence about the men involved. That's probably why we've never heard more about Prince Andrew. Trump may very well have been more involved with Epstein than he would like to portray. I wouldn't doubt it one bit. Rich, connected people hang in the same small circles. But--again--according to Epstein's attorney, Trump wasn't directly involved in the pedophilia activities. Not even sure he knew exactly how bad it really was, although he knew the girls were young. I'm not a major Trump fan. I look at policies vs. personalities. But, I think he used this to gin up his base, and it's backfired politically. That's a long way from me thinking he was involved in pedophilia. Again, he can't release anything from the federal grand jury information, or the other court documents without approval from the various judges. Also, the settlement issues may throw a curve in some of this info being released. I've said from the beginning, you're not going to get much.

Agree 100%. The federal government has very few enumerated powers laid out in the constitution, we’re a long way from original intent with the nanny state we’ve created.

Trump's FBI director, told right-wing media personality Glenn Beck on Dec. 13, 2023, that the head of the FBI under Biden had direct control of Epstein's "black book." "That's why you don't have the black book," Patel added. "And, to me, that's a thing I think President Trump should run on. On Day 1, roll out the 'black book.'" This was well thought out but so many things have come to light. Trump claims once again a witch hunt. Now it’s time to deploy distraction. Deny ,deny and play victim. Blame Biden. Trump is allegedly not on any list so release the black book.

Wrong on so many levels. But, I guess this means you agree Obama interfered in the election. Got it. I agree with you.

Exactly. That’s how absolutely insane the Supreme Court’s decision granting immunity to sitting Presidents was.

You give yourself way too much credit. Your post made no sense…..again.

No treason. He was guarding election integrity.

That means I hit a nerve. You know it’s true.

The Mueller Report. What a crock…..

The smartest thing this government could do would be to start revoking all security clearances at separations of service for either military or political personnel. Obama still has his clearance. Why? Same with any of them. Never did understand the policy of allowing them to continue. If someone needs to be read in, make them pass another clearance based on up-to-date information.
